GUEST EDITORIAL ATHLETIC PARTICIPATION IT'S A PRIVILEGE (Editor's Note: The following message by Ken Fagans, Commissioner of the California Interscholastic Federation, Southern Section presents a logical argument- supported by legal precedent-- that athletic participation is a privilege.) English and Physical Education are two courses required of secondary school students in California. The better students in English may have the option (depending upon the breadth of their school's extracurricular ac­ tivities) of participating as members of the school dramatic club, speech team, newspaper staff, or yearbook staff. Such participation would not be a right but a privilege reserved for those who demonstrate interest and ability, together with a willingness to abide by the rules of the organization. It is no different for other courses and other extra­ curricular activities. The natural outlet for expression of the better physical education student is athletics. And as an- extra-curricular activity such athletic participation is necessarily a privilege. No one is guaranteed a place on the team. Where there are just so many uniforms to fill, so many seats on the bus, so much room on the bench, so many lockers DR. GLENN WELLS McHenry friends have received word of the death Jan. 23 in Los Angeles, Calif , of Dr. Glenn Wells, 73. Dr. Wells was born in McHenry May 20, 1901, son of Dr. and Mrs. D.G. Wells. He was a graduate of the local high school and later taught for a time in McHenry. The deceased had practiced dentistry in California for thirty-seven years. His father, a physician, was at one time mayor of McHenry. Dr. Wells, a fifty-year member of the McHenry Masonic order, belonged to the local lodge for many years. Survivors are his wife, Maxine; one son. David, a lawyer in Colorado, and a daughter, Barbara Smith, residing in California. Burial was in Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Glendale, Calif., following services in the Little Church of the Flowers. ROBERTS RUEMELIN Robert S. Ruemelin, 23, died Sunday, March 9, in McHenry hospital.

His survivors include his parents, James D. and Patricia (Stoller) Ruemelin of Rich­ mond; two sisters, Kathy and Sue, both at home and a brother, Michael G., McHenry; maternal grandparents, Robert and Irene Stoller, Pompano Beach, Fla.; his paternal grandmother, Mrs. Sophie Fox, Deland.

Justen and Son funeral home, scheduled after Monday at 7p.m. A funeral Mass will be offered Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock at St. Patrick's church with burial in Coun­ tryside cemetery. JEFFREY J. HEUER Jeffrey J. (J. J.) Heuer, 4508 W. Home avenue, McHenry, died March 6 at Loyola University Medical Center, Maywood. He was 22 months in the team section, those with the superior qualifications will be considered first. Without such a guarantee, the student must be ready to meet the standards established or face the possibility that he or she will not be a member of the team. All else being equal, the better one's talent, the better one's chance of making the team. Rarely (if ever), however, will talent be the sole criterion. In all likelihood, such factors as attitude, desire, cooperation'and self-discipline will all play important parts. In the self-government of the California Inter-scholastic Federation, (as well as the IHSA), we all operate under the fundamental belief that athletic participation is a privilege and is not guaranteed to any school, coach, or student. Just as in­ dividual membership on a team is not a right, it is equally true that school membership in the Association is also not a right. Those individuals or schools who, for some reason, cannot or will not abide by rules established at one or more administrative levels may be denied such athletic par­ ticipation. We feel this is not only justifiable but highly desirable. In recent years there have been disquieting attempts to undermine the concept of athletic privilege. Demands have been made by individuals, schools and groups for the removal of this penalty, the waiver of that restriction, the restoration of a "right," etc. Several of these have made their way into the nation's courtrooms, where in the large majority, they have been denied. In March of 1974, the Supreme Court ruled, in the San Antonio Independent School District v. Rodriquez case, the education is not among the rights afforded explicit protection under our Federal Constitution, nor is there any basis for saying it is implicitly so protected. With this decision, the Supreme Court has eliminated the argument that education, and thus participation in extra­ curricular activities, is a constitutional right. The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, stated that nowhere in the Constitution is there any guarantee of a right to play football. This was in response to a suit brought forth on behalf of a boy who had been guilty of misconduct toward a game official and had been suspended from the team. When a high school in Ken­ tucky had been prohibited by the Kentucky High School Athletic Association from participating in regional tournament competition because it had exceeded the maximum number of games permitted each school, as established by association and incorporated into its By-laws, the school challenged the action in court. The case was dismissed, the judge ruling that it was a privilege, not a right, to participate in athletics. Another case in Iowa found the court ruling against a 20- year-old who claimed his rights were being denied him by the Iowa High School Athletic Association because he had started school at the age of seven and exceeded the maximum age rule for com petition of the association. The court said that interscholastic athletics is a privilege--not a fundamental interest. Other recent rulings upholding this principle have been in Colorado and Minnesota this year. Regardless of the merits of these isolated (but increasingly more frequent) cases, there is almost always the contention that some individual or some school is being denied "rights." Unfortunately, a great deal of antagonism is engendered due to such misunderstanding. While to rally support for one who is "being denied his RECEIVES AWARD - Rep. R. Bruce Waddell, left, representing the 33rd district, was presented the 1974 Legislative award by the Illinois State Veterinary Medical association. The award is in recognition of Rep. Waddell's "distinguished service in the 79th Illinois General Assembly, and for his active support of responsive legislation for the protection of the health and welfare of the people in the State of Illinois". Presenting the award is Dr. Robert C. Glover of Evanston, President of the Illinois State Veterinary Medical association. old, born in McHenry hospital, May 11, 1973.

We want a state of things which allows every man the largest liberty compatible with the liberty of every other man. Ralph Waldo Emerson rights" would be laudatory in some instances, such action on behalf of individuals, teams or schools who complain about their "right of athletic par­ ticipation" would be misguided.
